I hope that the genius of the designer who invented this system was immediately fired by Monsieur Renault ... and never again hired by any other manufacturer !!!
Thank you for posting, just found my tire is shredded and I need to replace it to get to the mechanic (not locally available) so I can get me a new one - OMGosh - wish me luck.
The plastic centre holder which supports the tyre has to engage with the white plastic 'nut' which can then be screwed up. No amount of pulling and clicking works (I've found to my frustration) unless that 'bolt' enters the boot cavity. Is there a degree course for this?
there is a small sign at the bottom on the centre piece that says position two, if the wheel won't engage give the centre holder a quarter of a turn and try again, it worked for me.
i don't know i i turned the white nut counter clockwise a bit and tried again, done it once or twice, when it lines up it clicks in just like the video.
About 3 yrs ago I had to get Greenflag out to get the spare down. Used it again yesterday - it works but I think a good spray of WD-40 could help on future occasions. One concern for me is that the car is 16 years old - is the spare reliable after that length of time? Plus - the jack is a pig to use and replace - as another poster has stated. Plus - I'm a fairly strong bloke and I find the bolt lever doesn't loosen the bolts that easily, so I bought an extendable lever.
Does anyone know how to get the cable to retract back into the handle after pulling the wheel up? My cable remains fully extended. Like the spring retracting mechanism is locked.
@@oomrah9748 yes I just tapped the handle a few times with something like the handle of a screwdriver. It seems like the mechanism jams sometimes and needs some encouragement. If you can't find the cable, it may have fully retracted into the handle. You might only see the bit on the end sticking out of the handle. Just a guess.
I didn't know how to use this system and the only option I had was disable the whole system. Now I don't find instructions to asamble the inside plastic system again. Some Web with pictures please?
I've tightened the white plastic retainer when I finished, but my spare wheel is not fully tightened under my car. It sits a little bit loose .. is this normal ?
I'm now experiencing this same problem, where the spare rocks around underneath a bit when everything's tightened. Did you find a solution or is your spare still gently rocking away?
Ashley Morgan Anderson hi I managed to fix it, the plate that you put On the tier the bit that you attach the cable To had to be positioned a certain way with a spike bit poking out towards you as you pull the tier back into place! Hope this helps
@@AshleyMorganAnderson Not tried this yet myself, as only just got the wheel off, but it could be worth putting the jack under the wheel to get it fully tight and in position, then tighten it with the plastic thing inside the car, this may do the trick.
The plastic tool you have to use to remove the spare wheel is a nightmare ..theres 2 silver pins push the 2of them the left one to the left the right 1 to the right and the wheel drops down 😂😂fkn renault 🤬🤬🤬😂

God bless you mate, god bless you, my father was trying to return the tire for 2 hours, you saved his day when I found your clip 😁

i have a slightly newer clio and one of the four wheel bolts is different. How do i get that one loose?
There should be a locking wheel bolt adapter supplied with the vehicle. Normally in the toolkit.
I cant find the retainer cable after i took it off..
mine just will not release-it wont drop down-doing exactly as video
Mate im currently stranded with the same issue, please tell me you found a solution
Very helpful thanks
You're welcome!
